The stock market in the Black Hills
presents curious study. The mines
pay dividends regularly and the out
look for them is promising, and yet the
stocks refuse to go up a solitary peg.
Evidently there are good many suspi-
cious people in the world.

The liquor men are already finding
avenues through which to escape the
local option law, and there promise to
be some lively times. In a very large
number of instances prohibition will
not prohibit. Already firm of attor-
neys has offered to insure saloOnkeep-
ers against the law-the latter to keep
open as now, and the former to protect
them from punishment or financial
damage in the way of fines, etc. This
is business on the improved Dakota
plan.
Educational affairs, under Demo-
cratic administration, seem to be in a
fourishing condition. There is a gen.
eral awakening of the educators all
along the line. And all this, too, with
out the valuable assistance of Prof.
PIERCE at the head of the Grand Forks
university.
Gov. PIERCE made a speech at Man.
dan vilely abusing CLEVELAND. The
words are quoted in another column.
And then he had the gall to accept pO
litical favOrs at his hands. The mask
has been torn off the face of the ''gOod
governor" and now people see him as
he really is.
A gentleman by the name of TAYLOR,
residing at Canton, seems to be afflicted
with a mild attack of nightmare. He
seems to fear that the q. A. r. is going
to be broken up-which would be very,
very sad, as it would throw FORAKER
and FAIRCHILD and FUTILE out of their
jobs.

There is so little interest in the result
of the recent election in Dakota that no
one seems anxious to get the totals.

S25 bluff may loom up again in Editor
PIERCE'S supplement to-day. If so, his
head will be knocked off. The GLOBE
is able to handle him with one hand tied
behind its back.

Judge FRANCIS deserves some praise,
at any rate, for his ability to hang on.
For an old man his mOlars seem to be
in excellent condition. If he keeps on
at his present gait people will become so
wrapped up in admiration of his prowess
and agility that they will forget all
about their desire to have him fired. 1t
begins to look as if Editor JEWELL, of
Bismarck, will win his wager of 500 to
$50 that he holds to the end of his term.

Those four scoops by the GLOBE seem
to worry Editor PIERCE very much in
deed. But there's no reason why he
should make BOBBY of himself by
squealing so Justify. He's at least
forty-fve years of age, and has been
governor of great territory! Better
things are expected of him. If he had
any ''sand'' he'd put ON the gloves with
the Pioneer Press managing editor for
sending him that HI telegram.

If Editor PIERCE is living in Da-
kota in 1890 he can draw on the GLOBE
for new hat. The people are getting
on to him, and the thermometer is grad
ually sereeping above zero. He can't
stand it when the mercury reaches
about IS.
